When it was just dawn, the sound of running could be heard at the entrance of the village. It was Shang Zhen and the others setting off to the north again.
Yesterday they marched in a hurry when they came out at dusk, but this time it was a forced march.
Raising an army for a thousand days is spent in a moment. Shang Zhen asked everyone to run quickly, so they had no choice but to run quickly.
It's only early autumn now. Although the crops in the fields have been harvested, the trees are still green.
Soon, their clothes were wet with sweat, and when it was getting brighter, they ran north for nearly an hour.
At this time, Shang Zhen asked everyone to slow down, but he kept running forward at the original speed with a small dustpan in light clothes.
Wang Laomao gasped and looked at the surrounding terrain.
Shang Zhen had already discussed his battle plan with him last night, but he only knew it in his mind, while others didn't understand it.
And Mr. Wang and the others walked forward for more than half an hour. They saw Shang Zhen running back with a small dustpan.
"Run back quickly, you see the little devil!" Shang Zhen shouted breathlessly.
So the thirty or so of them turned around and ran back.
From beginning to end, Shang Zhen did not say how he should fight this battle. It was as if his group were really like the ancient scouts, running forward and running back to report when they saw the shadow of the enemy's brigade.
However, no one complained about Shang Zhen.
Old people like Wang Lao Mao Qian Chuan'er and others have complete trust in Shang Zhen, but those like Guan Tiedou and others who were later elected by Shang Zhen have no right to complain.
Shang Zhen led the group to run for a while. When they ran through a small forest, Shang Zhen shouted: "Run to the right and enter the wheat field!"
At this time, the wheat field had already been harvested. They stepped on the wheat stubble and continued running, and finally hid themselves in the wormwood at the end of the wheat field.
"I don't know how many Japanese soldiers have come from the brigade. Our goal is to defeat the leading soldiers of the Japanese soldiers in front. There are about twenty of them in total." Shang Zhen said.
Only then did others understand what Shang Zhen was up to.
However, before Shang Zhen finished speaking, he went on to explain: "There is a gap of three to four hundred meters between the leading Japanese soldiers and the brigade behind them.
When the Japs' top soldiers come out of the woods, we will shoot and run westward after the shooting is over.
The large group of Japanese behind us can't catch up with us.
Little Dustpan, please take two people to the west first and explore the path for us. Don't let us get through any terrain ahead!
By the way, the Japanese still have a small number of cavalry, probably around thirty or forty people. "
Xiao Dustpan took the two people away, while Shang Zhen and the others began to prepare for battle.
"His grandma is a jerk. She hasn't shot a kid in a long time. This gun is rusty!"
I'm telling you, try to get rid of all the top soldiers of these little devils! "Old Hat Wang said while playing with his flower trap.
Now that Shang Zhen and his group have joined the special training team, the weapons are finally equipped with double guns, one for each person, half of them have flower traps, and the other half use rifles.
However, Erhanzi and Guan Tiedou each had a light machine gun.
With their current firepower deployment, under the premise of a sudden attack, it should not be a big problem to kill the twenty or so top soldiers of the Japanese army.
"Captain Lu said that if we can delay, we can delay for a while. If we run away without a trace, how can we deal with the Japanese if they don't chase us?" But at this time, Hu Zhuzi raised a question.
"Don't tell me, our tiger pillar actually knows how to use his brain. It's just that you don't have a brain to ask this question?" Old Hat Wang scolded.
"Why don't I have a brain?" Hu Zhuzhu frowned and was unconvinced.
"Are you stupid to think that the Japs are dead? We just killed all the Japs. The Japs don't know where we are when they look at the positions where they were shot?" Mr. Wang said angrily.
"Oh, hehe, I didn't expect that." Hu Zhuzhu admitted his mistake.
"Xiucai, what did you say? What about the brain and limbs?" Wang Laomao asked again.
"Simple mind, well-developed limbs." Chu Tian and Chen Hanwen responded at the same time.
"Hey, I said we are just a bitch -" Hu Zhuzhu hated the idea of the "one and a half" scholar trying to squeeze him.
So "one and a half" scholars all shut up.
The person Chu Tian and Chen Hanwen were least willing to offend was Hu Zhuzi.
To say that among this group of people, others use vulgar words to criticize them is to go a long way.
But Hu Zhuzhu doesn't know how to do this. If this half-scholar wants to provoke him, he will always use violence directly!
However, now Hu Zhuzi only cursed half of his words before being choked back by Shang Zhen's glare.
"Get ready to fight!" Shang Zhen said.
So, everyone stopped messing around and put their guns on fire, and the guns were pointed at the intersection at the end of the woods.
After about twenty minutes, everyone's hearts moved. At this time, people really appeared at the intersection, but judging from the clothes, they were ordinary people, six or seven people in total.
Shang Zhen looked through the telescope and saw that the people running around looked panicked, but there happened to be a woman among them who was holding a child!
The Japanese army began to attack from north to south. Naturally, there were ordinary people on the road. I don’t know where those ordinary people came from. They probably saw the Japanese army in front of them and ran back in fear.
"Listen! Something seems to be wrong!" Okay, at this moment Mr. Wang suddenly said.
Everyone was preparing to fight, and their attention was naturally focused. At this time, others also heard it.
What did you hear? I heard the faint sound of horse hooves!
"The Japanese cavalry caught up first!" Shang Zhen frowned.
His mind began to spin rapidly.
It is conceivable that several common people appeared from nowhere. As soon as the common people saw the Japanese army, they panicked and ran back.
But when you ran back, you always ran on the small road, but you were still running on the highway.
The Japanese army is now launching an attack to the south. How could they allow them to see the people in front of them? The infantry is slow to pursue them. It would be strange if they don't send the cavalry out to pursue them!
To fight or not to fight, Shang Zhen hesitated for a moment.
Without fighting, the Japanese army would definitely not be able to detect them. It was just a matter of them pulling back their heads.
If they fight, they may not be able to kill all the Japanese cavalry.
"Wait and see!" Shang Zhen said. Fortunately, the initiative is now in their hands, and whether to fight or not depends on their thoughts. Let's see.
At this time, the Japanese cavalry really showed up.
The Japanese army has always been very small, but the ocean horse is very tall. Shang Zhen and others can't figure out how the Japanese army transported the tall horse from the Japanese islands to China.
Seeing the Japanese cavalry lining up in a line, prancing on horseback and wielding swords, chasing after them along the road, Shang Zhen knew that he had to fight. If he didn't fight, none of the people would be able to escape!
Sure enough, the Japanese cavalry were seen with their hooves in the wind, head to tail. The first Japanese soldier was about to catch up with the civilians running at the back. Even the Japanese soldier had already raised the saber in his hand, and at this time the Japanese soldier's There were only a dozen cavalrymen running out of the woods.
"Get ready to shoot!" Shang Zhen ordered.
There were more than thirty people in total, a platoon of troops. They didn't plan to stage a big ambush, they just wanted to take advantage and run away.
Shang Zhen could never allow the Japanese army to kill Chinese people under his nose, let alone a mother and son among them.
